Critical Infrastructure Demands Robust Technologies
Security technologies are valuable at deterring criminal and illegal behavior in many environment, but most are most especially well suited for industrial environments.
It is proven that the visible addition of security cameras to high-crime areas reduces criminal activity significantly. But video surveillance isn’t the only valuable service or system to effectively reduce crime. The presence of security guards also limits illicit activity that leads to loss or damage and regular visible patrols restricts the opportunity for violence.
Both solutions are effective in the prevention of crime but there are limitations to these methods. Video surveillance is often not monitored in real-time and therefore, no action is taken to stop an incident before it occurs. At the same time, the role of a security guard has expanded as officers are tasked with more duties on job sites than ever before. Proprietary security teams engage security guards for a variety of tasks including conducting regular patrols, greeting visitors, managing access identities and badges, and investigating suspicious incidents. The increased purview makes it difficult for even the most trained security guard to manage all tasks to the best of his ability.
Automated perimeter detection solutions, like the FutureSentry First Responder, are developed on the idea that intelligent technologies can prevent and deter potentially criminal activity before loss or damage occurs, while decreasing response time. These solutions can be used to enhance perimeter security and safety in the government, commercial, transportation, education and critical infrastructure markets, and in real-world applications, are proven to reduce criminal activity by as much as 90 percent in high-crime environments.
